E-DRUG: Unaffordable drug prices cause hypertension noncompliance (2)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear e-druggers,

I think this is a very interesting report involving my Alma mater in
Kumasi!

Although low income seems to be the only ringed culprit, I wonder
how much of un affordability could also be attributed to diverted
expenditure into the concomitant use of other medication, including
critical ones such as antimalarials and antibiotics but also "tonics" and
aphrodisiacs of doubtful justification!
